Vista - Windows Live pop3 settings?

Just created a Windows Live email account (and hotmail account) because my
current email provider is closing shortly

I prefer to use Windows Vista Mail but I can't find any pop3 settings for
Live mail (or hotmail)

Any pointers/links?

P.S. I noticed Live mail front end includes newsgroups which i use a lot - I
also use filters/rules - I also use Live messenger - Is it as good as Vista
Mail?

Mail, which can connect to Hotmail in addition to taking over any accounts
Windows Mail can handle.

Although Windows Live Mail may encourage you to have a Windows Live
account, it does not require one.

Note that the Windows Live programs are a whole family of programs,
not just one program.

For more information on Windows Live Mail, you're likely to get answers
faster in the newsgroup meant for it:

microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop

Not everyone agrees on whether Windows Live Mail is better or worse
than Windows Mail, but at least Microsoft is putting more effort into
writing updates for Windows Live Mail.

You don't need to know any settings.
Just give Windows Lve Mail (WLM) your Hotmail or Live.com address,
and it will automatically do all the settings for you.

Most users who have tried both say WLM is better than WM.
